People Are Pirates, Build the Strongest Naval Branch

Iron Mine Island, 128 nautical miles from Corona Island, where the Eighteenth Branch is located.

This is a very peculiar island. Almost the entire island is full of ore veins and pure iron mountains. The key is that the area is super large.

If this is in Li Yan's previous life, I am afraid that a war will break out for this island.

However, in the pirate world, everyone has no interest in this island.

One is that the demand for steel is not that large, and the other is that this island is far away from several kingdoms in the East China Sea. Even the nearest kingdom is about 300 nautical miles away.

Therefore, if you are in the iron ore mining business, you might as well find a few ore veins around each kingdom and mine them nearby.

otherwise...

Shipping costs can kill you.

However, at this moment, this island has a different meaning in Li Yan's eyes.

Soon, when the ironclad era really comes and the demand for steel in the world soars, people will know what a huge treasure this iron ore island is.

Purchased the drawings of the steel mill directly from within the system, and then commissioned the system to build on the iron ore island.

It took a whole 2 million merit points, but Li Yan didn't feel bad at all. This merit was worth the money!

Then, the Iron Mine Island was designated as the outpost of the 18th branch, and a full 200 sailors were arranged to be stationed there. Even Gross was asked to go to the Iron Island after completing the new branch building and other projects to build some such as the naval dormitory. infrastructure such as restaurants.

Of course, Li Yan doesn't need the iron ore island's output to meet his needs at once. For the time being, he only needs to have a channel to obtain steel, so that after exchanging a large amount of steel from the system, he can't tell the source.

To put it bluntly, in the early days, Iron Ore Island existed more as a cover.

For this purpose, Li Yan even recruited a large number of people with experience in iron ore mining to work on the iron ore island in the entire East China Sea. The salary is 30% higher than that of his peers, and the 18th branch is responsible for paying.

When everything was arranged, Li Yan found Frankie, Barry and others, and even Kaku did not shy away.

Let them build ten transport ships in one month, which are specially used for the transportation tasks from the iron ore island to the eighteenth branch. As for the iron armored ship designed by Franky, it will be set in a month, and the steel will gradually be in place. to start building again.

Speaking of,

Li Yan was really surprised when asked about the construction period of Franky's iron armored ship.

After all, in the world of pirates, it is common sense that a ship can be completed in a few days at most ten days.

However, French said that even if the raw materials are sufficient, it will take at least two months to complete the ship, which will cost half of the crew of Carrera's East China Sea Division.

However, think about it, after all, this is an ironclad ship and not a wooden ship...

Even if the speed of shipbuilding in Pirate World is outrageous, it cannot be built in a few days.

soon...

A month has passed like that.

The iron and steel plant on the iron ore island has been built and officially put into operation.

And the hundreds of miners that Li Yan recruited from the East China Sea enthusiastically devoted themselves to the mining industry because of the 30% more salary.

even...

Several ships have been transported to the shipbuilding island after preliminary processing of steel, ready to be reprocessed and used in shipbuilding.

What I have to mention is that before the technology has completely passed the test, Li Yan immediately got rid of a smile and helped.

Under its powerful fruit and deep development.

Help Franky and the others to shape and forge steel by gravity, which is more reliable than any machine.

Of course, in addition to these few ships, Li Yan also exchanged a lot in the system, and also sent them to Steel Island.

finally...

The ironclad giant ship, which had been on paper for a month, began to be built under the command of Franky.

"System, are you giving me a chance to attract a strong man?"

"It's been almost a month and a half. What about people?"

On the ninth floor of the new office building, inside Li Yan's office.

After being busy for a month, he finally remembered that a month and a half ago, the Qiwuhai first kill gift package opened a powerful opportunity to attract, and he used it directly at that time.

According to the previous system's instructions, after using this thing, shouldn't it be within a month that a strong person with great strength will come to the 18th branch?

And now it has been a month and a half, where is the person?

Recalling this, Li Yan directly turned on the complaint mode to the system.

[Ding, the opportunity to attract the strong has taken effect, and the corresponding strong has arrived at the branch as early as a month ago]

[Please do not slander this system, the host]

Good guy, came a month ago?

Doesn't it mean that he is at least an SS-level talent, and his strength has become a strong man?

There are such masters coming to the 18th branch, can you not know?

Bullshit... keep bullshitting!

Hearing the system's explanation, Li Yan looked disdainful.

Don't you know who there are in your branch?

[Remind the host that great strength does not necessarily refer to combat power, the other hosts are asked to explore by themselves]

Well, figuring it out on my own again...

However, strength must refer to combat?

There is a problem with this sentence.

That is to say, if a person's Go talent reaches SS level, and then his chess skills have reached a very high level, according to the system, he can be considered a strong player?

But even so, Li Yan couldn't think of what kind of person he had come here a month ago...

A month ago...

A month ago...

wait, a month ago...

Carrera's support?

Shouldn't it be him?

At present, he is at the third S level, and he has a growing talent for shipbuilding, and although his shipbuilding strength cannot be said to be the peak moment, it is definitely a great achievement.

If you really want to talk about the top three boatmen in the world, there must be a place for him.

damn...

Could it be this guy?

This is a huge trouble. After the completion of the ironclad, I think I don’t know and let him return to the Seven Waters.

Li Yan, who finally figured it out, was speechless for a while, and even had some entanglements...

------

Just when Li Yan was entangled over Franky's affairs, a major event happened in the Navy Headquarters.

After several months of hard work by the Science Department, the production problem of Corona 18 has been completely solved, and even all key materials can be mass-produced.

And the navy...

A complete makeover has also begun.

Of course, the first batch of 2,000 pieces was directly divided among the three generals.

As for the others, we can only wait for the follow-up output.

After all, who would dare to snatch something with the three generals these days?

After getting this batch of Corona Type 18 and a large number of new bullets, Akainu couldn't sit still immediately, and went out to sea to test guns with several warships of the New World G1 branch.

Well, that's right, a test shot.

However, it was those pirates who were used to test the gun.

This time, the whole new world jumped up.

Although it is said that in the new world, as long as the pirates who are a little bit famous, they are the ones who have mastered the domineering existence. Even if the Corona 18-style is very strong, it is not a big threat to them.

However, even if the threat is not big, it can be used to contain them. After all, they can't be like the real powerhouse, and they can completely ignore Corona's 18-style.

As for the ordinary crew members in the pirate group, they have really suffered from blood mold for 18 lives.

Basically, most of them were killed by Corona's 18th-style before they even started the pick-up battle, and the rest were hiding behind various obstacles, not daring to move.

In just ten days, Akainu easily and happily eliminated eight pirate groups, and each of these eight pirates placed in the first half of the great route is definitely the level of the blood wolf Garfield. even...

stronger presence.

then...

It has only been a few months since the last time the New World Pirate Alliance attacked the G1 branch, a new alliance consisting of more than 30 powerful pirate groups appeared in the new world again.

Even the intelligence department of the Navy headquarters also discovered that behind this alliance, there are...

The traces of the BIGMOM Pirates and the Beasts Pirates!
